Lizard works at the Wild Thangs Petshop downtown. Lizard used to do drugs and ended up very wrong in the head. You know, lights are on, but nobody is home.One can short of a six-pack elevator does`nt quite reach the top floor. Mrs. Wild Thang, the Black Lady that owns Wild Thangs Pet Shop, found him sleeping out back by the dumpsters. She discovered an incredible gift in him, brought out by his unfortunate struggles with chemical dependencies he can talk with the animals! He was back there having conversations with a pair of rats, it was the most incredible thing Mrs Wild Thang ever saw. She felt bad for Lizard and took him in and gave him a place to sleep in the backroom. In return feeds and cleans the cages of all the animals and keeps them company. His favoite pet is Iguanaloco, the huge pet Iguana that kicks back on his shoulder. Lizard is in high demand at the local schools where he is called on to show off his pets in front of the kids. While he`s there discussing animals. he also discusses the nightmare of being hooked on drugs, and how it left him sleeping and eating in a dumpster behind Wild Thangs Pet Shop.
